I’ve been chomping at the bit wanting to share a piece of artwork for a story of mine done by bunn . (Nothing a writer loves more than art based upon their own work! I was thrilled with this picture. It’s been a while.) She does not object to me sharing, so this is it:
heartofoshun wrote a very early Silmarillion-setting story I liked. It's called We Weren't Born to Follow, about the Tatyar, the not-yet-Noldor deciding under the stars whether to follow Finwë and journey West to Aman. I loved the image of Míriel under starlight and the Noldor watching Finwë speak, his eyes full of light, everything colored by starlight and firelight, so I tried to draw it.
The line she pictures above is, “He raised one hand high above his head to gain their attention. The people quieted and stopped to look at him, waiting near breathless for him to speak.” --We Weren’t Born to Follow Not exactly deathless prose, but her artwork makes it better.
Please respect the artist and not copy or re-post without permission.
